I am doing this exactly the same. The Sotozeros are going on November 7th at my local BMW dealer.

Good so far but only been near freezing here so can’t comment properly from a performance in cold weather perspective yet. Defo more confidence already though. As with winters from previous cars you get the lighter steering feel due to different tread pattern but I expected that and quite like it!

i think Joe Achilles does a good job of explaining the difference in feel in his video here:

I got the same exact tires, but it's still 20C+ here during the day, so haven't bothered installing them.

I went with these same PA4 tires on the stock 20" comp wheels as well, but a square set of 285/35/20 on all four corners, mainly because the 275/35/20 size is not currently available in the US for some reason.

Are you going to be switching back to the summer tired and back to winter again? I wanted to do that but doesn’t that damage the tires ?

Yeah - I’ll be switching back and forth on the same wheels. I’ve done it on previous cars and it hasn’t been a problem for me. Getting a place you trust to do it properly and not damage your wheels or tyres is probably the main thing to look for.

Mine are now on also, did it Monday evening, it took 45 minutes. Then it snowed on Tuesday, so just in time. LOL.

20" Michelins symmetrical in front and asymmetrical in back?

I am looking for the same staggered set up on my factory 20" rims. On the Tire Rack website winter tires section only the Pirellis are available for a 275/35 20 and 285/35 20 set up. I looked at Tire Racks winter tires and wheel section and found the Michelin Alpins were available in those same sizes as a part of a staggered winter tire and wheel package.

I called Tire Rack and was told the Michelins were actually available for order by themselves but weren't listed in the winter tire section because the fronts were symmetrical and the rears were asymmetrical.

Why they would be available in one section and not the other made no sense to me at all. Either it's a good set up or it isn't, right?

What have those of you that have the Michelins found? Is there any difference in the tread pattern between front and rears? I am wondering if there would be any difference in handling due to symmetrical in front and asymmetrical in back.

The tread pattern is different between the front and rears on my PA4 275 vs 285. But it feels pretty good to me..

Hide mine mounted yesterday. Different pattern as well.

No, they won't. The wheels are wide (10 and 10.5J) and the offset is wrong too (ET40 on the 10J and ET32 on the 10.5J). There is a chance they may not clear the strut.
